Hmm ... Tasty's cool but there's some funny business:

* What's up with "Exception: ExitSuccess"? Why does a test framework need to
throw an exception to exit?
* Why does Tasty rewrite HUnit? They left out some nice features, like the
(~:) operator, allowing quick suite authoring a la 'test = "foo" ~: [ bar
@?= baz]' ...

Cheers,
